Hello I got a chance to trade my 1990 Eagle Talon TSI AWD for a 86 Firebird. I was wondering what i would have to get to put my zz4 crate motor in it? Is it hard? All input helps

it is a pretty easy swap that has been done a lot of times before. i did a quick search on www.thirdgen.org and found several threads detailing the swap.
the easy thing to do would be to go with a non-computer carb'ed set up. a fuel injected set up could be installed, it jsut adds some wiring work to the to do list.

welcome to the club and good luck with it.

Not too hard at all. I would have to agree with the carb setup if at all possible.

The usual things have to be addressed: front springs, motor mounts, headers, etc. TPI can be done, but a complete wiring harness will be needed.
